Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 52:27h-21, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 52:27h-21.
The Legislature finds and declares that: a. Historically, businesses owned by minorities and women have been small establishments
offering products and services and their participation in the nation's business community
has been disproportionate to their numbers in society as a whole. b. The opportunity for full participation in our free enterprise system by minorities
and women is essential if social and economic justice for them is to be attained,
and the functioning of our economy improved. c. The role of government at the national, State and local levels in encouraging the
development of businesses owned by minorities and women has been recognized and is
developing at a rapid pace, with technical and financial assistance, contract procurement,
contract set-asides and other programs designed to encourage development. d. As a result, each year entrepreneurs in New Jersey spend an average of $5,000.00
to demonstrate that they qualify for these programs designed to foster the growth
and development of their businesses, so that the public agencies administering the
programs can be certain that the businesses which benefit are bona fide minority or
women's businesses. e. A unified procedure for the certification of businesses owned by minorities and
women, administered by the State, for the purpose of certifying the eligibility of
the businesses for various State programs will eliminate duplication of effort and
improve efficiency, thereby increasing productivity and reducing costs in the public
and the private sectors.
